Renting movies by post is a quite easy process, as a result of something we like to call the net. The customer simply must request a Blu-ray rental account online and uses the on-line interface to request copies of the movies they want as well as the order through which they can like to receive them.

The films are then dispatched to the customers address with a pre-paid return envelope. All of the customer then must do is pop the films back within the post once they have finished watching them.

There a range of different packages available when renting movies online, that start from as little as Ł3.88 monthly for up to two films a month with the customer receiving only one at a time (at time of writing). There are actually higher priced packages available in which you can keep up to 3 movies at a time whilst borrowing an unlimited number per 30 days.

Whilst the range of movies you may borrow per 30 days will never be as many as that are available over the watch movie premium channels on television, you may have access to the latest releases much earlier when renting.

Also, the alternatives at the moment are not so good. Streaming movies via the web is still in its infancy and is fairly costly, also renting via your TV service is comparatively very costly (renting online is half the cost of just one pay per view movie for example).

There is only one individual that can decide whether renting movies by post is suitable for you, and thankfully to help unsure customers make up their minds most Blu-ray rental companies offer generous free trials that will last up to 30 days. So my advice could be is to try before you buy to make sure you fully utilise the service.
